I am getting ready to swap out my 7.5" for an 8.8" out of a mountaineer, and have a few questions. I was wondering if I can keep it spring under by getting lift springs (my rough measurement is 6" for axletube and springpacks) this would keep my ride height the same. Also I am wondering that since im rebuilding the 8.8 do I regear it to match my 4.10 front diff, or do I swap out the donor vehicles front diff as well and keep the 3.73 donor gears. The 5.0l seems to have the power to pull through the 3.73.
Any thoughts and suggestions are appreciated.
